Chapter 1778 Do Not Touch Me
âBut I donât want that!â
Arielle didnât expect the general before her to be that straightforward. That was the first time they met,
and he already asked her to be his woman. What the heck? He might be okay with this, but I am not!
âWhat did you just say?â asked Micah as he stared at Arielle in shock. It was as though he couldnât
believe what he just heard. âI said I donât want to be your woman,â repeated Arielle. The warm smile on
Micahâs face turned upside down instantly.
He didnât expect the woman in front of him to be that difficult. As far as he was concerned, she was
lucky that he was into her. How dare she turn me down?
âDo you know who I am? How dare you turn me down like this?â said Micah, shooting daggers at
Arielle while wearing a stoic expression on his face. He was exuding a natural intimidating aura without
having to put up a front.
âI donât care who you are. My answer remains the same,â Arielle replied calmly while looking right into
his eyes.
Micah stared at her for quite some time before he suddenly grinned. âYou sure are bold.â
It had been a while since he met a woman as defiant as Arielle. However, the more she behaved like
that, the more he became intrigued by her.
Arielle scoffed. Bold? This has nothing to do with courage. Iâm just confident, thatâs all.
âHave you been feeling dizzy recently? Do your ears ring? Does your skin feel numb, and sometimes
your thinking is slow?â
As soon as Arielle said that, the expression on Micahâs face changed drastically. He strode over and
clasped her neck.
âHow did you know all that? Who sent you here?â demanded Micah in a frosty tone.
Actually, Arielle saw that coming and couldâve dodged Micahâs grasp, but she could only bear with it in
order to not expose her own identity.
Micahâs powerful grip made her cough a little, but she managed to answer his question. âI-I am a
doctor.â
A doctor?
Micah loosened his grip and looked at her suspiciously. âYou figured all that out just by looking at me?â
Arielle nodded, knowing that Micah was beginning to believe her.
âI knew it the instant I saw you. My guess is that you have consulted many doctors over the years to
treat your condition. They couldnât cure you, right?â
Micah remained silent.
It was true. He had secretly consulted many doctors and had practically visited every hospital and clinic
out there. However, they couldnât cure him, even though they were able to diagnose him.
He wanted an heir, so over the past few years, he had been taking medications to condition his bodily
functions.
âLet me guess. You havenât had a kid since you had Lena. Isnât that right?â asked Arielle, her tone
placid but firm. âIâll help you get your body ready for another child and boost your fertility. Youâll have
kids again. But, my only condition is that you donât touch me.â
Arielle didnât know if what she said would end up persuading Micah, but it didnât matter even if she
failed. After all, she still had her silver-plated needles with her, so if he dared to touch her, she would
not hesitate to strike.
She would make it so that he would never be a real man again.
Micah wavered upon hearing her offer.
Women were a dime a dozen to him. However, doctors who could cure him were extremely rare. Most
importantly, he was impressed that she was able to diagnose him just by looking at him.
âAre you sure you can cure me?â asked Micah, staring intently at her. âIf you lie to meâ¦â
âI never make any promises I canât fulfill.â
That indifferent statement from Arielle was all it took to elicit some trust from Micah.
âFine. I will agree to your terms. I wonât touch you, but you must cure me,â replied Micah. His gaze was
filled with hostility as he threatened, âBut if you failâ¦â
